The marathon would be held at <br />the Paintball Pro indoor paintball course, which is located at 6390 McKinley Street NW. Staff <br />requested detailed information from Mr. Nystel relating to parking issues, noise level, whether or <br />not alcohol would be served, and number of people they are planning for, security, etc. Mr. <br />Nystel provided a very detailed report. Police Chief Gustafson stated Mr. Nystel does not work <br />for this company any longer. He noted he is concerned about the noise levels. He added it is <br />not clear whether they want to use the parking lot or hold the event indoors. Police Chief <br />Gustafson stated the estimated turnout is about 300.

The site is located at 7815 Riverdale Drive, generally located south of <br />State Highway #10 and east of Armstrong Boulevard (County Road 83). The applicant received a <br />Conditional Use Permit in 1992 for the manufacturing portion of the facility. The Conditional <br />Use Permit that was issued on March 24, 1992, stated any expansion or enlargement of the <br />manufacturing operation requires the applicant to obtain a new Conditional Use Permit. In <br />accordance with state law, staff attempted to notify property owners within 350 feet of the <br />boundaries of the subject property of the public hearing. Subsequent to the issuance of a <br />Conditional Use Permit on March 24, 1992, the demand for canvas boat covers, fish houses and <br />other related items has greatly increased. The applicant is asking for an expansion of his existing <br />building to provide more manufacturing and warehousing area to adequately serve the increase in <br />customers. The applicant has also submitted a site plan for the proposed 2,520 square foot <br />manufacturing/warehouse addition. The existing manufacturing/warehouse area is 3,472 square <br />feet in size. The proposed addition will match the existing building and comply with all related <br />City Codes. The Planning Commission held a public hearing at the May 2, 2000 meeting.
